African Spice

Chef Miatta

Cuisine: Sierra Leonean

Miatta, originally from Sierra Leone, made Utah her home after arriving in the United States as a refugee in 2009. A few years later, she joined Spice Kitchen Incubator and has since launched her catering business. She learned to cook with her mother while living in a refugee camp and soon became the chef there.

African Spice offers Sierra Leonean cuisine to Salt Lake customers as a catering company and festival vendor. Along with Sous-chef Elias, Chef Miatta wants her customers to discover and fall in love with the clean, distinct flavors of her country.
